The <code class="filename">sslinfo</code> module provides information about the SSL
certificate that the current client provided when connecting to
<span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>. The module is useless (most functions
will return NULL) if the current connection does not use SSL.
</p><p>
Some of the information available through this module can also be obtained
using the built-in system view <a class="link" href="monitoring-stats.html#MONITORING-PG-STAT-SSL-VIEW" title="28.2.10. pg_stat_ssl">
<code class="structname">pg_stat_ssl</code></a>.
</p><p>
This extension won't build at all unless the installation was
configured with <code class="literal">--with-ssl=openssl</code>.

<code class="function">ssl_is_used() returns boolean</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.1.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Returns true if current connection to server uses SSL, and false
otherwise.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_version() returns text</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.2.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Returns the name of the protocol used for the SSL connection (e.g., TLSv1.0,
TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2 or TLSv1.3).
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_cipher() returns text</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.3.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Returns the name of the cipher used for the SSL connection
(e.g., DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA).
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_client_cert_present() returns boolean</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.4.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Returns true if current client has presented a valid SSL client
certificate to the server, and false otherwise. (The server
might or might not be configured to require a client certificate.)
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_client_serial() returns numeric</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.5.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Returns serial number of current client certificate. The combination of
certificate serial number and certificate issuer is guaranteed to
uniquely identify a certificate (but not its owner — the owner
ought to regularly change their keys, and get new certificates from the
issuer).
</p><p>
So, if you run your own CA and allow only certificates from this CA to
be accepted by the server, the serial number is the most reliable (albeit
not very mnemonic) means to identify a user.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_client_dn() returns text</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.6.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Returns the full subject of the current client certificate, converting
character data into the current database encoding. It is assumed that
if you use non-ASCII characters in the certificate names, your
database is able to represent these characters, too. If your database
uses the SQL_ASCII encoding, non-ASCII characters in the name will be
represented as UTF-8 sequences.
</p><p>
The result looks like <code class="literal">/CN=Somebody /C=Some country/O=Some organization</code>.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_issuer_dn() returns text</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.7.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Returns the full issuer name of the current client certificate, converting
character data into the current database encoding. Encoding conversions
are handled the same as for <code class="function">ssl_client_dn</code>.
</p><p>
The combination of the return value of this function with the
certificate serial number uniquely identifies the certificate.
</p><p>
This function is really useful only if you have more than one trusted CA
certificate in your server's certificate authority file, or if this CA
has issued some intermediate certificate authority certificates.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_client_dn_field(fieldname text) returns text</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.8.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
This function returns the value of the specified field in the
certificate subject, or NULL if the field is not present.
Field names are string constants that are converted into ASN1 object
identifiers using the <span class="productname">OpenSSL</span> object
database. The following values are acceptable:
</p><pre class="literallayout">
commonName (alias CN)
surname (alias SN)
name
givenName (alias GN)
countryName (alias C)
localityName (alias L)
stateOrProvinceName (alias ST)
organizationName (alias O)
organizationalUnitName (alias OU)
title
description
initials
postalCode
streetAddress
generationQualifier
description
dnQualifier
x500UniqueIdentifier
pseudonym
role
emailAddress
</pre><p>
All of these fields are optional, except <code class="structfield">commonName</code>.
It depends
entirely on your CA's policy which of them would be included and which
wouldn't. The meaning of these fields, however, is strictly defined by
the X.500 and X.509 standards, so you cannot just assign arbitrary
meaning to them.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_issuer_field(fieldname text) returns text</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.9.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Same as <code class="function">ssl_client_dn_field</code>, but for the certificate issuer
rather than the certificate subject.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="function">ssl_extension_info() returns setof record</code>
<a id="id-1.11.7.51.6.2.10.1.2" class="indexterm"></a>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Provide information about extensions of client certificate: extension name,
extension value, and if it is a critical extension.
